Speaking of politically active Oscar-winners and Reagan, Michael Douglas is in talks to play the former president in Reykjavik, a Ridley Scott–produced indie drama about the nuclear arms discussions between Reagan and Soviet Union leader Mikhail Gorbachev. Set across a few days, the film will chronicle the pair’s peace talks against the backdrop of the Chernobyl disaster. Producers have until March, when the film is scheduled to begin shooting in Germany, to cast the role of Gorbachev.
